Cgagnon, I really do think we will have it before the end of May, you aren't much ahead of me.......next week maybe! Hoping the holiday doesn't slow them down much!

I'm thinking they will go faster...remember easter weekend when they came back on the tuesday the approvals were flying out of there. Most of the other half of January got approved that week. But I'm not getting my hopes up i'm telling myself 2 weeks so if it happens in less time than that I will be soooo excited! I really want the approval for when we get back from our trip and to apply for his extension!

I told my husband it might not be until June and he's like "Well..that sucks! I was hoping I'd get PR by June* sarcastically*" Oh honey, how thankful you must be that I love you :p

But I'm hoping it'll come faster! I'd love to meet my in-laws but we're too nervous to go visit until he's a PR

AOR or approval? They aren't the same thing. I got an AOR but am waiting for approval.

Feb 8 is getting approval today.

I'm a Feb 21 applicant and they made a decision on may 16 - last Wednesday. I'm assuming approval but waiting for the letter they mailed. (I saw this info on ecas today)

So March get ready - they'll be starting on your applications soon! Remember February is a short month - even on leap year!

Oh haha. How did you see it on Ecas? I thought you needed an ID number to see what's going on it?

The AOR email gives you two numbers you can login with.

My point is that they're getting close to March.

Ohh you got an AOR, lucky! :)

I'm so anxious for them to start processing March. Also worried. Sigh.
